About the Film
In Gorgo, a volcanic eruption in the North Atlantic brings a 65-foot prehistoric monster to the surface. A salvage ship crew captures the creature and puts it on public display in a Battersea Park circus in London. When scientists discover Gorgo is only a baby, its 200-foot-tall mother storms the city to rescue her offspring, leaving destruction across the capital.
